Bjuland has stated that the Christian Democrats ought to be against liberalising drugs. Furthermore, he claimed that the police have enough resources to combat the issue, but that the approach to it should be tougher. He suggested that the police could utilise police dogs in school yards and utilise other resources, such as testing youths for drugs in early stages so that they can be followed up properly and not be left outside of society.

He has expressed that the Christian Democrats can work with the Progress Party in government. Furthermore, he has suggested that it would be ideal for his party to work with the Conservatives and the Progress Party in government, but has also been open to other coalition options. The Progress Party has however ruled out working with the Christian Democrats in government for a second time.{{cite web | url = https://www.nrk.no/norge/listhaug-taler-til-frps-landsstyre-1.16796468 | title = Listhaug vil regjere med Høyre, ikke Venstre og KrF | publisher = NRK | date = 9 March 2024 | access-date = 12 September 2024 | language = nb}}

Bjuland has been critical of the LGBT organisation Norwegian Organisation for Sexual and Gender Diversity being allowed to be present in schools, teaching about gender identity. He has highlighted issues such as how they teach about a being born the wrong gender and utilising different pronouns. He has also expressed that this should be replaced by a better public option to teach the subject in schools.

Bjuland hails from Nærbø in Hå Municipality in Rogaland. He is one of seven siblings. Two of his brothers, Torkel and Olaus Bjuland, are also members of the Christian Democratic Party and has served as leader and county leader of the Rogaland Young Christian Democrats respectively.
